    Long Island Audit: Sean Paul Reyes and his endless Lawsuit Lotto

    Appears you fail to understand that invoking one's Fifth Amendment rights applies to a per question basis - it does not automatically cascade to subsequent questions. This is why people asking questions such as police, prosecutors, and legislators may continue asking questions after the Fifth...

    Long Island Audit: Sean Paul Reyes and his endless Lawsuit Lotto

    I'm pretty sure I already covered this in an earlier comment. Lemme check... yep on page 2. 'The Court has ruled there has to be legitimate reasons to implement such controls and they need to be reasonable. Employee convenience, personal dislike of being recorded, etc are not sufficient enough...

    Long Island Audit: Sean Paul Reyes and his endless Lawsuit Lotto

    Performing one's job still requires the person to do so whilst complying with the law. (This also applies to private citizens too. For example, the right to self defence does not allow the attacked to pursue his attacker to continue on with the violence in the form of retribution. Our acts often...

    I haven't seen Sean get into the face (millimetres away was how Ivo described it and what I based my reply to him) of people. That said, I think you may have watched many, many more hours of these videos by many others, so was transpired between each and every person involved I can't say. I have...

    Long Island Audit: Sean Paul Reyes and his endless Lawsuit Lotto

    If lawful, 'just because you may' is perfectly acceptable. When a lawful activity is deemed unacceptable by a public servant it has no basis in law and is arbitrary. This is an abuse of power. A good way to have people understand and respect law is for it to be clear, enforced evenhandedly, and...

    Untrue. FOIA requests may be filed for the release of CCTV footage. Further, why it is you put so much trust in government and so little trust in other citizens? Seems to me this is indicative of the break down of community. Not only do corruption and misdeeds exist in both public officials and...

    Long Island Audit: Sean Paul Reyes and his endless Lawsuit Lotto

    Is refusing to answer a question 'going to great lengths'? I suppose you and I have different definitions of this measure. The Court has ruled police may ask a person to dentity him/herself voluntarily. The Court has also ruled people may decline. You've certainly seen the journalists ask this...

    It's very clear what he's doing. He's recording and 'muttering' into his phone/camera. It's so obvious that it doesn't need to be asked. The better question is: 'Why are you recording?' As good a question that it is, some public servants think they are entitled to an answer and detailed...

    Is this a red herring? No, at least it's not obvious to me why it might be. It's an old chestnut - tedious because of its age and constant repetition. Tedious, but it isn't inaccurate. I suppose the contemporary version would be a person shouting 'Bomb!' in a crowded airport. If you want a...

    Long Island Audit: Sean Paul Reyes and his endless Lawsuit Lotto

    I feel satisfied, even happy, when the journalist visits a public place and nothing happens. This informs me those particular public employees have a good understanding of the law and practice their authority in compliance. Did they gain this from their parents, their teachers, independent...

    Hypocrisy is the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one's own behavior does not conform. I fail to see how they are hypocritical. They don't demand others stop filming them. They don't demand others leave the facility. They don't demand others relinquish their...

    It doesn't bother me people get paid. There are people who work for charities, NGOs, all kinds of activist groups, etc who are paid. Some of them very well. A bit more than 10% of the private-sector workforce is employed by a non-profit. Hell, politicians claiming to perform public service - 'I...

    Long Island Audit: Sean Paul Reyes and his endless Lawsuit Lotto

    I already addressed the issue of required and recommended in a prior comment. If the order, by a person duly authorised by law to do so such as a governor or president, states people are required, then they are so - excluding those granted exemptions by the order. However, we keep seeing local...

    Long Island Audit: Sean Paul Reyes and his endless Lawsuit Lotto

    I've seen nothing that hints at this. It appears he's quite tolerant of gov't strong arming people and the arbitrary declaration of 'law', but this is not exclusively KKK. Plenty of actors of all political stripes left and right resort to authoritarianism once a bit of power is given to them. He...
